Summary:
Thirteen-year-old Jordan Mendoza has a huge crush on his classmate, Sierra, but he's never going to win her affections if he stays a C-student and keeps embarrassing himself on the basketball court. But when Jordan dives in to the waters of a dangerous irrigation canal to save a drowning puppy, he's suddenly got even more on his mind than Sierra and making the starting team. Can he nurse the abandoned puppy back to health? Why are the cops suddenly at Jordan's door, looking for him?
